As previously stated, both these stars are holding out for a significant raise if/when the final film in the franchise is broken into two. This is more than a rumor, as Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke doesn't doubt Summit Entertainment would replace the leads if pressed.

She also blames outside influences for getting Lutz an Greene to this point.

"Ashley and Kellan have agents, managers, lawyers... you get all of these outside influences telling you you should hold out for this much because you're such an important part of the franchise," Hardwicke toldUs Weekly. "It could turn ugly. Do [these actors] deserve more money? Probably they do, on one level. But if everybody make so much money then... it's complicated. What a mess!"

A huge mess, indeed.

Fortunately, even if Lutz is out of the franchise, he has a bright, HOT future as an underwear model. See for yourself.

if they fire kellan lutz i will stand at the cinema doors stopping people watching. it's stupid, they should just get more money, they're too important to replace, it would just ruin the movies.
